A recording apparatus includes a medium setting section on which a recording medium (M) is set; a recording section that records an image on the recording medium set on the medium setting section; and a medium moving section that reciprocates the medium setting section with respect to the recording section. The recording section includes a pretreatment section that supplies a pretreatment liquid to the recording medium when the medium setting section moves in a first direction, a leveling section that is provided on a further downstream side with respect to the pretreatment section in the first direction and levels a recording surface of the recording medium when the medium setting section moves in the first direction, and a supplying section that supplies ink to a leveled recording surface when the medium setting section moves in a second direction.

Provided is a black porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane including a porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane dyed black. A whiteness of a principal face of the black porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane as measured according to JIS L 1015 (Hunter method) is 18.0 to 23.0%, and the whiteness of the principal face falls within a range of 18.0 and 25.0% after heating at 350 C. for 1 minute. This black porous PTFE membrane is suitable as a gas-permeable membrane that blocks entry of water and/or dust and that allows permeation of gases; specifically, the black porous PTFE membrane is suitable, for example, as a waterproof sound-transmitting membrane, a waterproof gas-permeable membrane, and a dustproof gas-permeable membrane.

A method for treating dyed textile, comprises contacting the dyed textile with a pectolytic enxyme, wherein the said method is not applied during the abrasion stage when the dyed textile is a denim fabric.

A multicolored and accented carpet includes a plurality of tufts of color accented fiber including two or more differently colored extruded solution dyed yarns and a base yarn twisted together whereby a plurality of color transitions are provided along the length of the single accented fiber. A cut pile carpet is produced, having the appearance of a space dyed carpet, with the fade and bleach resistance of a solution dyed carpet.

There is provided a slide fastener and a method for manufacturing a slide fastener. A slide fastener is provided with: a pair of fastener tapes; a pair of fastener element rows provided respectively on the opposing tape-side edges of the pair of fastener tapes and having a plurality of fastener elements; and a slider configured to engage and disengage the pair of fastener element rows with and from each other. Each of the fastener element rows is composed of a monofilament which is made of synthetic resin. The monofilament has, on the surface thereof, a surface layer which can be colored with dyes. A roughened surface having a number of concaves is formed on the surfaces of the surface layer.

An ink jet recording process using a glitter pigment provides satisfactory glitter even on a recording medium having a rough surface. The ink jet recording process includes a glitter image-forming step of forming a glitter image by discharging a glitter ink composition containing a glitter pigment to a recording medium and a pressing step of pressing the layer of the glitter image formed on the recording medium.
